Founded in 1965 by Sir Julian Hodge, Hodge is a financial services business headquartered in Cardiff, Wales. Operating as a specialist bank, its core business revolves around providing savings products and specialized lending, including residential mortgages (particularly for later life and holiday lets), and commercial property finance. The "Hodge Lifetime" brand was specifically associated with their lifetime mortgage (equity release) products, which are now integrated into the main Hodge brand's "Later Life" mortgage offerings. Uniquely, the company is 79% owned by the Hodge Foundation, a charity that supports welfare, medical, and educational causes, meaning a majority of the company's profits are used for philanthropic purposes.
